posting for my reference

London, England, Marriages and Banns, 1754-1921
about Walter Thomas Anthony Thomson
Name: Walter Thomas Anthony Thomson
Age: 24
Estimated birth year: abt 1863
Spouse Name: Eliza Sophia Westcott
Spouse Age: 18
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 7 Jun 1887
Parish: St Mark, Victoria Park
County: Middlesex
Borough: Tower Hamlets
Father Name: William Thomson
Spouse Father Name: Henry Westcott

If that marriage is correct then someone has him on Ancestry as

Thomas Walter Anthony Thomson
Birth
18 Oct 1862
in Hoxton New Town, London

It is a puplic tree.

FannyByGaslight Report 23 Jul 2010 13:25

Ha.Taylors have him correct. 18/10/62

Births Dec 1862
THOMSON Thomas Walten Anthony Shoreditch 1c 140

So most certainly looks like him on 1881 LK.
Thank you.



Walter Thomson sorted.

Please dont worry about siblings.

I am only doing direct ancestors for him....

But thank you.

Going to paint bathroom ceiling now.

Finish with that one for now.

If you would search for Gladys possibilities I would be most grateful..
But I have sent for her birth today as I have a feeling she may have made daddy up .
I dont see any poss on 1911..
